SpringBoot + RabbitMQ throwing error : java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused

Question

I have hosted a multimodule project on heroku and receiving the following error when trying to run my Spring Boot Application.

The issue I see is, it is trying to connect some localhost whereas I have my addon CloudAMQP Little Lemur added in heroku and I have added these to my both Application.yml file:

spring:
    profiles: heroku
    mvc:
      async:
        request-timeout: 3600000
    rabbitmq:
      addresses: amqp://****:*****@puma.rmq.cloudamqp.com/uyjgxslh
      host: puma.rmq.cloudamqp.com
      port: 1883
      username: ****:****
      password: *****

In my webModule I have this code:

@SpringBootApplication
public class SpringBootHerokuExampleApplication {

    public final static String PDF_MERGE_QUEUE= "pdf-merge-queue";

    @Bean
    Queue queue(){
        return new Queue(PDF_MERGE_QUEUE, false);
    }

    @Bean
    TopicExchange exchange(){
        return new TopicExchange("pdf-nerge-exchange");
    }

    @Bean
    Binding binding(Queue queue, TopicExchange topicExchange){
        return BindingBuilder.bind(queue).to(topicExchange).with(PDF_MERGE_QUEUE);
    }

    @Bean
    SimpleMessageListenerContainer container(ConnectionFactory connectionFactory,
                                             MessageListenerAdapter listenerAdapter){
        SimpleMessageListenerContainer container = new SimpleMessageListenerContainer();
        container.setConnectionFactory(connectionFactory);
        container.setQueueNames(PDF_MERGE_QUEUE);
        container.setMessageListener(listenerAdapter);
        return container;
    }

    @Bean
    MessageListenerAdapter listenerAdapter(RabbitMQListener rabbitMQListener){
        return new MessageListenerAdapter(rabbitMQListener, "receiveMessage");
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        SpringApplication.run(SpringBootHerokuExampleApplication.class, args);
    }
}

and in my worker module main method:

public class SpringBootHerokuExampleApplication {
    public final static String PDF_MERGE_QUEUE= "pdf-merge-queue";
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        SpringApplication.run(SpringBootHerokuExampleApplication.class, args);
    }
}

Please find below some more stack trace from Heroku logs :

Why is it trying to connect to localhost when I have specified host name explicitly in yml file? Any Idea?

Just found out that in yml file I have a profile named as heroku, when I removed it , it connected to the RabbitMQ in the given host.
